My First Xbox!!! Now What?!?!

[ajmi982]

so... im reading on team executioner's website and they say themselves that the best way to mod is to SOLDER not to buy an adapter when they are talkin about a product they are going to release the Xdapt3r.

So...do i suck it up and try to solder? if i solder, then what is the best chip? what do i need and were do i buy the gun, flux, and yadayada??

sorry to bother, just excited and want to get to work modding.

SORRY team XECUTER for grossly mispelling ur name, im stupid its late, anyway, please help guys.

[Quall999]

well, i don't think team x-ecutor comes to these boards at all, so they won't mind.

Anyways, what version xbox do you have?
Soldering is a much better way to go, but if you have never done it before then you might want to practice. The solderless adapters sometimes slip out of place.

However, you can get a solderles adapter and use hotglue to keep it in place. That is probably effective.

More than likely its a 1.6 if its new out of the store..
Don't bother with the solderless adapter, or one of those solderless chips like the spiderchip. They don't have anything nice for 1.6s (due to the change in the lpc port)..

Next give me 100 dollars.. after that practice your soldering.. make a buddy who knows how.. or pay an installer.. I'm not an installer.. just give me 100 dolalrs.

I can't recommend a chip. But Quall is a super baby genius. Listen to him..

Either Smart XX 2 or a duox 2 is a good choice.

Duo x2

But do u want to play on xbox live? or use xbc?

[ajmi982]

XBC is fine, but if i could turn the chip off that would be nice, plus, im a pretty smart guy and love electronics, i could fiddle around with soldering, but why not wait for the 1.6 solderless adapter that x-ecuter is making for their X3.

and... I thought the X3 is the best chip you can get.
